Everyone has a part to play – together we can make Chemnitz shine brighter than ever!
Do you believe in the vision of the Festival of Light Art? Do you like the new ideas we have for Chemnitz? Then add your own flame to our fire! Together, we can turn a vision into something great. Every little contribution can help make Chemnitz shine and turn these ideas that do our city justice into a reality.
The Festival will be free of charge for all visitors, but staging it certainly is not. Our aim is to generate a mid-six-figure sum from voluntary donations alone. The Festival of Light Art is therefore reliant on financial support (in addition to sponsorship and prize money) to both ensure that the volunteer organisers and promoters are not left bearing the costs, and to provide the necessary financial security to plan for next year.
If you want the Festival of Light Art to become a permanent fixture in Chemnitz’s cultural calendar, get involved!

Volunteers wanted!
Our organiser, Chemnitzer Tourismus und Marketing GmbH, headed by Manuel Grießbach, is also looking for volunteers to help out at the Festival. From setup and tear down to guarding the artworks, or as a steward for guests – anyone who can invest a few hours as a volunteer is welcome to do so. If interested, please sign up via the Chemnitz2025 volunteer programme, or contact us by email to manuel@lightourvision.de.
Many thanks for your support!
